As much as I'd like to see Kayla in a romance, it is so refreshing to see a smart, competent woman on this show that is neither a vixen or a woman obsessed with her love life or a woman obsessed with her child's love life. In this way, the show's screwing over of the Johnson family has actually benefited the character of Kayla (silver lining).

Kayla is being professional, smart and she's not intimidated by EJ. She is frankly the best female character on the show right now, and she's hardly used.
